Finland is 100% great. I want to live there when I get enough money.
PS my hairdresser is Finnish. Yay! (and she's a girl) :)

Too bad about th high suicide rate. :lol:

It would be easier to get me some sonata cds there, plus i would have to fork out £16+ for them :angry:

[QUOTE=Shattered_Future]I always wanted to take a trip to Finland...[/QUOTE]
They have a beautiful, sunny, tropical climate over there. :rolleyes:

It would be very cool, though. Anywhere in Scandinavia.

Steerpike 07-17-2005 03:37 PM

And it would the best place to go for a Tarot concert.

This may seem like a sexist question and im sorry but, is it true that chicks in finland are pretty much all really hot?

I've actually read that Finnish and Eastern European women are currently dominating the modelling business.

Yup, you know that usually like 1 in 10 girls are hot, and the other 9 aren't? Well over there it's the other way round. Seriously. They make the girls in Sweden look ordinary

shadow_stalker 07-17-2005 03:42 PM

Lord Abortion pack your bags we are going to finland!

Well, despite the fact that none of you phillistines thought these were good ideas, they got me thinking anyway, so now I have to write some songs that would fit the descriptions.

I've noticed that power metal in general gets a pretty bad reception from reviewers.

I hope you like them as much as I do :)

That 3rd Slough Feg song made me piss myself laughing

I was actually expecting iron maiden's version of the whicker man (only a cover)

Steerpike 07-17-2005 04:30 PM

I've listened to one song, and I can already safely say that if there is any justice in the world, these guys will catch on very soon.

I'm putting them in the queue for one of my spotlights. There's a few other bands in front of them, but they will be on the list.

You know, they've been around for 15 years and they have released 5 albums since 1996. Recognition should have already come. They're well known in the underground though and their live performances are awesome. Jondur said they play in a club in front 60 people as if they were playing in front of 6000! The unfortunate thing about them is that they're americans and the US is not the ideal place for a heavy metal band.

Nothing would make me happier than seeing them in a future spotlight of yours :)

shadow_stalker 07-17-2005 04:42 PM

I don't care who it goes to as long as it is appreciated.

Which is why it usually sucks being a metalhead in America.

Amen...unless you're a "metalhead". One who listens to nothing but generic nu-metal and metalcore. I don't like people like that...

Otherwise, it's unbelievably hard to find decent cds at cd stores anymore...although the FYE near my grandma's house actually had a metal section of the store...with some decent stuff.

shadow_stalker 07-17-2005 04:49 PM

HMV has stuff like Blink 182 in the metal section :upset:

There's an awesome Media Play semi-near my house. It's got great power and black metal. I spend a lot of money there. :)

Shattered_Future 07-17-2005 04:52 PM

BestBuy satisfied me for a while...had a decent selection at great prices.

Now, they have nothing i want...so I'm stuck with Tower Records, which has a semi-better selection, but with beefed up prices.

I gotta start using Amazon more...

Amazon is too f[SIZE=2]u[/SIZE]cking slow. I ordered two CDs there two weeks ago. I just got an order update from them saying they'll be shipped by the beginning of August. :angry: At least they make up for it by having every CD known to man.

Embarking on the quest of metal is very hard here in the US, unless you're into Slipknot and Korn.

shadow_stalker 07-17-2005 04:55 PM

I love amazon, only problem is i tend to get carried away with buying from there when i dont have money in my hands (which is why i dont have an ebay account).

Shattered_Future 07-17-2005 04:58 PM

I've actually never used Amazon before...

Come to think of it, I've never ordered anything online before, except just recently. I ordered a Nightwish sweatshirt, which turns out is DISF[COLOR=White]U[/COLOR]CKINGCONTINUED! :evil:

Ordered one off of the official Nightwish shop instead. :p

I want to move to Finland...or Italy. Course, then I'll have to learn a new language... :upset:. Which is very irritating.
